$28K starting bid for that pile of crap. But, it does have new leather seats....

Sorry guys, but the only thing that I see wrong with it is the headlights. It looks fine otherwise.

The headlights? The entire front end is an abortion. An effed up '74 Targa that is at a starting bid of $28K. That is just wrong in its entirety.

Judging from the amp in the trunk, what are the odds that the interior matches the front?

Someone spent a lot of time and effort to barf this one up.

Let's hope the donor was a salvage.

I'm gonna take a wild guess, and say someone drove this out to Cali by way of Miami Beach.

Also...my Spanish is not the best...but doesn't "Puteria" (on the license plates) mean "whore house"?

If so, it would go a long way in explaining some things.

Whoever is advertising this POS, sure doesn't know what a targa is.

To each their own..........I just wonder, with all that time & effort why didn't they think to preserve and restore such a beautiful/wonderful/ original 1974, it would have actually been worth maybe what they're asking? Misguided souls.......

I don't know why you would want to make the front of your porsche appear to be some generic japanese import but from a distance it appears to be well done at least. I know that particular shade of blue causes most on here to go into a rage (but what doesn't these days?) but I like it. The wheels are way over the top with the blacked out centers though.

Would all be forgiven if the hood crest had been in the correct location?...

Good call, dude....I guess I was so busy aiming for the barf bag, I must've missed this "little" oversight.

Whore=puta
Whore actions or activity(ies)=puteria(s)
Brothel=Burdel

Although you could call the whore house a "puteria" too.
